They decided stocking the cupboards would be a great wedding
present, as Uncle Jim and Aunt Norma would surely appreciate this. These guys
were practical jokers and took all the labels off every item on the shelf. A
lot of cans look alike...especially when they are undressed. Aunt Norma asked
me to have lunch with her ..... and it was like a treasure hunt, shaking this
can and that can until we found one that sounded right. We were going to have tuna
salad sandwiches that day, but the can of tuna turned out to be water-chesnuts,
and the peas turned out to be fruit cocktail! So when I say that lunch was
different it really was, but Aunt Norma kept a stiff upper lip and laughed
about it.
